Does anybody know if I can upgrade my HTC Wizard ROM to WM6 using my SD card? My USB port was broken and I am unable to connect USB to ActiveSync. I have seen a thread to do that using XDATools but I could not do it. Would you please help me to do flash my ROM using SD Card? Thanks.
You need to get someone to dump the ROM from device to a SD using mtty, then generate the image file using WinHex.
I am also in the same boat as the original poster. Were you ever able to complete the task? Does anyone have any more detailed instructions that I could use to do this?
I have access to the other HTC Wizard that I need, at least I think I need another one if I am reading the above post correctly...

Is it possible to make a rom upgrade by serial cable or by SD Card?
Serial cable I pass on but the SD methord is on wiki, not much use unless you have a dump of a rom to flash back. Seems a lot of work given that the way its done now works.

Never done it so can't help you more, have fun.
Hi,
Is it possible to upgrade my Qtek 9100 without using an USB cable but a SD card. The reason is that my mini USB connection on the Qtek is broken. So I can't connect the Qtek with my computer.
If it is possible to upgrade with a SD card can anybody tell me how.
I havn't heard of doing it this way in a while. My old T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone Edition. "Space Needle" used to be flashed this way. You would load the Rom onto the SD card and use some type of key combination at boot to load the rom... I'm not sure that it exists with this rom and hardware...
can be done, I do it on my spare wizard that also as a broken usb socket, however you must first have a memorycard with a rom image first.

To restore from an SD image, your wizard has to be CID unlocked first or else it won't update.

I have CID unlocked my phone so that's no problem. But how do I upgrade with a SDcard and how to make an image on a SD card.
Who can help.
put your phone in bootloader mode (make sure you have minisd in the slot)...disable activesync on your computer by stopping wcecomm process...then plug in the phone (while it's in bootloader)..then run romupdate_115.exe (look for it in the xda ftp). Then choose the usb connection (I think it's wcusb or something)..press enter..cmd> should appear...then type r2sd all (this will backup everything in the phone to the minisdwhen it completes).
Then when you put it in the phone you want to upgrade..put that minisd in the phone you want to upgrade and put that phone in bootloader. It will ask you if you want to update and press the voice command button to upgrade. Goodluck!
Can I make an image of a romupdate availiable in the xda ftp on a SDcard and upgrade my phone without connecting it to the computer.

If needed, PM Me and you can send me a MiniSD card to load a rom onto for you. and I'll ship it back. Let me know which rom you want loaded, and I will do it for you.
Actually somebody with an CID unlocked wizard can create an SD image and then upload it to the website for you to upload and use but it will definitely wipe out the data on their SD.
I'm in the same boat. My miniUSB port fell in. I need to get the t-mobile ROM back onto the phone so I have a chance of repair. If anyone could upload a ROM onto the forum that will let me update using a miniSD card I’d be very grateful.
At least I’m not the only one who's USB port has broke!
I have teh stock tmo ROM on a 128 MB miniSD. Doubt that would help, but if someone needs it...just tell me how to get the image off and I'll post it.

Assuming /dev/sda is the device pointing to your SD card reader, and /tmp/sd.img is the sd card image file, in Linux you can extract it with this command:
Code:
dd if=/dev/sda of=/tmp/sd.img
And you can write it back on another SD card with this command:
Code:
dd if=/tmp/sd.img of=/dev/sda
in Windows you can use psdread.exe and psdwrite.exe, see the wiki for instructions:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=XdaUtils/psdwrite.exe
If anyone makes an Original SD ROM of tmobile...Please upload it at ftp. It would help lots of people here in the forum..

My file isn't from teh FTP, its from my phone. I made a b/u before I installed X's rom on day 3 of my MDA ownership. Like I said, I think there's a way to pull the image off the card, but I'm not going to spend my time looking. If some one wants to find me instructions as well as links to programs needed, I'd be glad to post the image.
Restoring Tmobile USA Rom from SD card
Thats for all the info folks it worked perfectly and I will not have to cough up any money for me voiding the warrenty!!
Dear colleagues,
My USB connection to XDA II has a fault and cannot connect to PC via USB. Is it possible to upgrade to WM6.1 or WM6.0 via SD card?
Many thanks to all,
Amedeus
HMMM
please options serch this up
Hi
Sorry don't understand your reply?
Please explain.
Thanks
Amedeus
No, that will not work.
Your PC must be connected to the mobile device during update, the update (erase ROM, write new...) is done from the PC.
I didn't think it would. Thanks for reply.

unfortunately, there isent a way to upgrade the xda2 via SD_Card yet, i think someone over @ buzzdev.net tried it..
the only option is to either change your conector
I'm suspicious that it could theoretically be done using the grab_it.cab, designed to copy an entire rom, and it installs on a device once reinserted if I am not mistaken? I don't think it would actually work, but it may be possible one day down the track.
it have been reported that you can do it
but it require a himalaya connected to the pc
to prepare the sdcard
I need to take my Touch HD back to the shop for repairs under warranty because touch screen is not working.
And i currently have Dutty's ROM installed. Problem is that the mobile cannot connect to Active Sync because it is currently in the very first Win Mobile load-up screen and since the display does not work, I cannot install original ROM via USB - I NEED a ROM for install via SD card.
The original HTC touch HD ROMs on xda developers that I have seen are only for install via USB.
Can someone please please point me in the right direction to a English Touch HD Original HTC ROM please that i can install via the SD card? I would very very very much appreciate it!
You don't actually need to be able to connect the phone to Activesync in order to flash the stock rom.
Download whatever Stock Rom you want, boot your phone to the tri-colour screen (So holding down the Vol Down key while pressing power), plug in your USB cable, wait a few seconds and then start the Rom package that you downloaded onto your PC.
Edit - I'm assuming you have used HardSPL on your device. Don't forget that after flashing the stock Rom and Radio to flash your stock SPL back aswell.
It worked! Thanks a lot mate!
But 1 qs. Why do i need to install the Stock SPL? Is it also really important for the warranty?

I would say that yes, it is important.
I've read about warranty claims being refused because HardSPL was on the phone.

Heiii is very easy!!!!
Take the original rom (i think you see xxxxxx.exe) open with one program type winrar or winzip and extract the file largest,rename in BLACIMG.nbh and copy up your microsd
Now you flash with microsd....
This is only for the rom!! Bye
Flashing via SD card failes! Need help! THX
Hi,
I wonder what is wrong with my Touch HD:
I have Olinex 1.14. HSPL and Duttytroy 1.7 installed.
What do I have to do, when I want to flash a new ROM or RADIO by using the SD card. It always says: "No ROM found" or so when I boot in bootloeder modus an then press power buttom.
What things must be done in order to succeed with flashing by SD card??
SD card ist formated as FAT32 and is the original 8GB one that came with my TouchHD.
be sure its not one of those memorycard which just dont work for flashing
iirc they are the transcend ones
you also should format it and leave it completely empty with only the blacimg.nbh file
anyway the suggestions given to update with usb putting the machine in bootloader mode should work as well so that you wont be buggered by the crappy sd
Moony, thanks a lot for your help. HTC will be picking up my phone tomorrow and I have not yet flashed the softSPL because i cannot find it. i have looked for it at the Blackstone Wiki site here with no luck.
If u get this message on time, could u (or someone else) point me in the right direction on where to find the original SPL?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431217
You can find various original SPLs attached to the bottom of the first post.
I know the Telstra Australia Touch HDs used 1.15, and I think the normal European ones used 1.13 or 1.14.
